Road bump or sleeping policeman, road in Wandsworth London, near school

These are images of building works on a local road in Wandsworth London. After a road accident involving a child and a campaign from locals, Wandsworth Council got around to fitting road bumps and traffic calming crossings at the ends of the road.

This road has two schools and a nursery, yet the Council only did something about speeding cars and vans, after an accident. Other roads seem to have road bumps (which are also called sleeping policemen) for no reason at all.
